Judges’ comments

Expertly managing difficult working conditions with regard to noise levels and ensuring minimum disruption to the hotel and SKYCITY, has produced a fantastic Japanese restaurant situated in the entrance lobby of the Grand Hotel.
Working to a very tight programme, the build involved the demolition and soft strip out of the existing Lobby Bar and part of the Convention Centre entrance.
Architectural finishes and materials used were of a very high standard resulting in a beautiful restaurant that has already reached iconic status in Auckland.
